"Dana Lynn Photography was AMAZING!!!!!!!! the whole experience was truly wonderful!...from the beginning it was easy... her website was informative, it was easy to get a hold of her office and to make an appointment. They were there to answer all your questions. Her staff was super nice!!!! Once I met Dana I feel in love... she was so sweet, calm, and comforting. Her pictures where exactly what I hoped they would be. She was one of the best decisions I made while planning my wedding. Pictures last a life time and she captured every moment perfectly. I am truly grateful!!!"

"After searching online for a photographer, I was instantly drawn to Dana Lynn. Dana and her team provided the creative edge I was looking for to document my wedding. I initially came to Dana with a very intimate and confidential request. Unfortunately, shortly before our wedding, my mother in law, who had been helping us plan the wedding, unexpectedly passed away. I wanted to surprise my husband, and have his mother appear in our family photos with us. Without hesitation, Dana accepted the challenge, kept the secret, and delivered a result beyond my wildest dreams. Dana and her team, took a photo we had of my mother in law, from a family vacation, and merged it with one of our wedding photos, with such precision, that this was undetectable to the naked eye. I had to point it out, to everyone who viewed our photos. The reaction of my husband when he saw his mother, standing with us at our reception is something I will cherish for the rest of my life. Going into this process, I was a bit insecure about my physical appearance. I discussed this with Dana, and she immediately made me feel comfortable and secure that she would take all of my concerns into account when shooting the wedding. Dana was conscious of my concerns throughout my wedding day and this is clearly reflected in the finished product. I could not be happier with the results. What stood out to me the most, was with what care Dana and her team captured my most special moments. The tiny details that seemed so insignificant on the day of my wedding, as I was caught up in the whirlwind of the day, were highlighted so beautifully in both my photos and video. I highly recommend Dana Lynn and her team, their professionalism, creativity and attention to detail are truly unmatched."

"I must say from the very beginning Dana Lynn Photography were extremely wonderful! They worked with me and always were available to answer any questions. I must say the group of ladies that took our videos were extremely wonderful! They made us feel completely comfortable! I am so thankful I chose them as my videographers. We are beyond happy with our trailer and unedited video. Dana Lynn Photography did a beautiful job putting together the greatest day of our life! Thank you!"

"YES A MILLION TIMES! I'd pick them over and over again. Thank you to the staff of Dana Lynn photos for capturing the greatest day of our lives beautifully. Honestly, after searching for so many photographers/videographers i was worried about picking the right one! I wanted the greatest and most unique photos and video for a reasonable price... And while Dana Lynn had great & reasonable prices, as far as I'm concerned they delivered better images and video than other expensive vendors out there! Seriously... Look no further! The staff who followed me all day were young, sweet, creative, vibrant, fun! Melanie, Alex, Jose, and the other staff members who were apart of creating such a masterpiece... Thank you."

"We hired Dana Lynn Photography for Videography and Photography and we could not have asked for a more perfect experience with Dana Lynn and her staff. When looking for a Photographer and Videographer we searched high and low and found nothing that we thought would fit us, our venue or our style, until we found this Company. I couldn't imagine anyone else capturing our dream wedding. Our video is so heartfelt and they literally captured all the special moments in our wedding. The quality of our pictures is outstanding and the creativity and attention to detail is refreshing. We got our pictures back in less than 2 months and all of our footage as well. We were short on time for pictures so I would just recommend to make sure to have all of the pictures that you would like with family written out because I do regret not getting certain family pictures but that was not Dana Lynn Photography's fault, they would have taken pictures of us all night if we wanted! It is just a helpful tip for every couple getting married because you can not go back once the day is over. I would hire this company for any of my future events in a heartbeat! I literally tear up every time I watch our wedding video. You would not regret hiring this company. Thank you Dana Lynn! It was a pleasure working with you!"

"We had the pleasure of working with Dana Lynn and her team this past weekend at our wedding at the Sundy House. They are beyond amazing!!!! I can not describe into words how phenomenal they were. They arrived ahead of time and were extremely professional. They are so creative and had us take pictures in different locations on the property we wouldn't even have thought of. Even though it rained all day, they were able to take the most beautiful pictures. We have gotten a glimpse at a few of the pictures and they are breathtaking. I highly recommend them!!!! You rarely find photographers who have the eye to take creative and innovative shots that touch your soul..... Thank you so much again for capturing a very special memory in our lives!"

"We almost decided against videography. Almost. Our wedding planners urged us to consider it. Best decision EVER! We hired Dana Lynn to capture our modern, starry night themed wedding ceremony and reception at the Four Seasons Miami Hotel. Pictures are fabulous, but you won’t be able to relive the vows, gift exchanges, humorous moments, and toasts in the manner that only videography can provide. They were uber professional, worked well with our photography crew, and the final product made me cry. I literally bawled...at work, on my lunch break. The cinematography, music – simply beautiful. Don’t EVER omit videography. DLP, thank you for spending the day with us! And thank you for the memories."

"They were so great!! From the first phone call to the very end, they were great about responding on time and answering all my questions. They even had great suggestions on how to capture our day fully in the video. Totally worth it! I watched other couple's videos and loved how they captured so much in a short video, leaving nothing out. When we finally got our video, I was thrilled!!! It turned out AMAZING! I've watched it over and over and over and can't get enough! Such a great vendor to hire! Great quality! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!"

"Unlike most brides, I didn't necessarily have every moment of my wedding planned out to a "t". I am still in awe with the beautiful imagery in photo and video that Dana Lynn and her team captured during our wedding on 10/4. Talk about professionals! The team arrived early and that really put me at ease for the whole day. I preferred a more candid theme to our photos and they really delivered! Even without much direction from me or the groom, Dana Lynn and the team used their creative prowess and expertise and created fantastic scenes for the photos. She really made us feel comfortable in front of the camera under her direction. Dana Lynn even helped to fix my pesky bustle after the ceremony! Where would I have been without her?!

If I could go back and do it all over again, I would've hired photo and video services for more hours. I would've loved to see what else they had in store! I want to extend a most sincere and heartfelt thank you to Dana Lynn, her team and Claire, our service consultant, for their hard work and professionalism they demonstrated in documenting our wedding. I've already begun recommending them to any and all brides I meet! If you haven't been convinced already by other other 88 reviews, then please don't wait any longer to book Dana Lynn and her team; it will be your best and most worthwhile purchase!"

"We are so happy that we chose Dana Lynn Photography to document our engagement session and wedding day. They were easy to work with, accommodating to our needs, and the staff as friendly as can be! Most importantly, we love our photos and videos -- the quality is professional and modern. Thank you so much, we are one happy Bride and Groom!!"

"I recently worked with Dana Lynn Photography and it was an amazing experience. They did my photos for my Engagement Pictures and if I decide to have my wedding locally I will be contacting them for my wedding as well. I was very nervous about the photo shoot prior to because I was having a very difficult time finding a location and I had never met anyone from Dana Lynn prior to but I can assure that they made me feel very comfortable and friendly right away. Very patient and took their time to make sure that she was getting the looks she wanted. I received my photos after editing in less than two weeks and I absolutely LOVE THEM! Thank You Again Dana Lynn!"

"The Dana Lynn staff was great. From the moment they arrived to my room they were all about getting down to business. Aside from how friendly and sweet they were, they were so pleasant to work with! They were always smiling, in a great mood, excited for me and friendly with my family including my dogs. The day was very hot outside and they were very flexible and had wonderful suggestions. I am pretty easy going so it was refreshing to have them easy going as well. The pictures went by smoothly and was fun. They made me feel like a doll with their compliments. I truly had a nice experience with them. The videographer was also very friendly, pleasant and professional. The photo booth was a total hit! My husband fought me on it the entire year of planning and he thought it was a waste of money UNTIL the wedding was over. He loved it, I loved it, the entire wedding party loved it! The props were awesome and the photo booth guys were really cool. They had a great party attitude and kept all my guests very engaged, laughing and having a great time. My wedding was just a few days ago so naturally I have not received my pictures or video yet but I can't wait!!"

"I wasn't planning on hiring a videographer for our wedding but shortly before our wedding I changed my mind. They were able to work with me and I had no trouble scheduling. The video was absolutely amazing and I am so glad I picked them to document this special time in our lives. If I would have known how much I was going to love it, I would have picked a bigger package!!"

"I want to start by saying we honestly couldn't be happier! We live in Ohio and had a destination wedding in April in Miami. (We ran into a lot of roadblocks leading up to the wedding because of the distance.) We choose Dana Lynn for our wedding photography. Compared to every other vendor we used for our wedding the responsiveness of this company was above and beyond. We spoke mostly with Maria. She was always nice, professional and understanding. She responded quickly with all calls and emails. Leading up to the wedding, since we didn't get to meet our photographer, Tasha, ahead of time, she followed some of my wedding boards on Pinterest. As a bride, this was probably the best idea ever (as I spent every free minute on Pinterest). She exceeded my expectations and took the extra effort to "get to know us" apart from the questionnaire. Even without meeting her, she had a clear idea of what we wanted. On the day of the wedding, we chose the 5 hour photography option. Tasha and her assistant (I forget her name) were on time, VERY friendly with me, my friends and family AND each other. Tasha even showed up with confetti so I could have a fun photo with my bridesmaids (which is my favorite, of all of the bridesmaids pictures). I must admit, I gave up on the details of the wedding within a week before the "I do's". To have someone so prepared and comfortable with her job made me so happy and reassured. I can confidently say Dana Lynn was the best vendor we used because of Tasha, her assistant and Maria. When the wedding was over, the pictures were available to be viewed online earlier than the 8 weeks we expected. The UBS was received about a week or so later in the cutest package. The extra effort that was taken with the packaging alone shows how much this company appreciates their clients. I highly recommend Dana Lynn for photography! The memories Tasha captured were beyond our expectations!!"

"I used Dana Lynn Photography for videography services for my wedding 5/2/15 at the Epic Hotel in Miami. They were very accommodating, responsive, patient and thorough during the hiring process. I called relatively last-minute because I originally wasn't going to do a video and now am SOOO glad I changed my mind. The videographer they sent showed up on time and taped away - I swear we barely knew he was there! But he got everything and checked in with us before he left. We just received the trailer of the video and are thrilled with it. I highly recommend using this company for videography - and btw their packages are very, very affordable. Best of luck!"

"I got married on 4/18/15 and used Dana Lynn for her photography, videography & photobooth services. I also used her for my engagement shoot. I don't regret it for one second! Her team and her are behind professional and very detailed. They make you feel so comfortable when taking pictures.The photobooth was such a hit and it was so fun! I received the CD with all the pictures from the photobooth 2 weeks after the wedding.I can't wait till I see the pictures and video from the wedding! If was anything like our engagement shoot I will be so happy! She does such a great job on editing and capturing the perfect lighting and scenery. The CD comes in such cute packaging as well! I highly recommend her for all 3 services! You won't regret it :)!"

"Dana and her team were great! Prior to the event I was able to fill out a profile to give specific instructions and provide them with important info. The day of the wedding, Dana and her team were on time and very professional. They took a lot of pictures and the videographer also captured every special moment. I forgot that they were even there at times, which allowed me to have fun with my family and friends and dance the night away without being distracted! We loved the video and pictures, they came out beautifully and exceeded our expectations!!

“I found Dana by a reference and based on her beautiful photos I knew instantly I made the best choice. We decided on using her photography,videography & photo booth. We got such an amazing deal on pricing using all 3 services my friends who recently planned a wedding were so jealous lol. Our guests loved loved the PhotoBooth and I was pleasantly surprised to have the DVD of all the pics so quickly after my wedding. When Dana and her fabulous team arrived they made me feel very at ease. They were on time and very professional. I received my trailer for my video just short of 6 weeks and OMG!!! I cannot stop watching it over and over, everything was perfect!! It was everything I dreamed of. I felt like I was watching scenes from a romantic movie I swear. As for our pictures I was more than happy!! She captured my wedding so beautifully I highly recommend hiring her and her awesome team!!”

"I was looking for a photographer that I didn't feel was out of my price range, and Dana Lynn was the perfect choice. They don't offer a one price fits all package, they allow to choose the services and time frames that you want. At first I just wanted photos (we were having a very small wedding with 35 guests), but then after viewing some of the wedding films I booked a videographer too. Even with this added expense it wasn't breaking the bank.

Her team of photographers are all excellent and talented. They worked well with us and captured some beautiful moments. I also have to give major thanks to the office manager Maria. She was helpful and was always available to answer my questions."

"We had a whole package, Video, photos and photobooth. First of all with the pictures all I can say is; Tasha is amazing! We were originally supposed to work with a different photographer but after he had to cancel our engagement shot, Tasha stepped in. It was an amazing experience to get to work with such a talented photographer. She puts so much thought into everything and the results showed once we got our pictures. Thankfully she also took our wedding pictures. Now I cant wait to see them! The videographers were also a pleasure to work with. I've seen their work before and I know our video will be amazing. The photobooth was a great addition to our reception. Everyone loved it."

"Every Bride has high hopes for their wedding pictures, and Dana Lynn's photography and videography definitely surpassed my expectations! I recently received my wedding photos and I am blown away with the quality of work. Dana Lynn executed the perfect balance that we requested of formal posed pictures and candid fun pictures. I feel like I am reliving my wedding day every time I look at my photos. Her and her team were very easy to work with throughout the wedding process. Dana Lynn has wonderful ideas, but is also very receptive to your input and wedding day vision. On our wedding day, Dana Lynn and her team were happy, professional, and adapted perfectly to our venue and wedding party. Some of my favorite pictures from our wedding day were impromptu photos taken by a fountain we were passing on our way to another site. Dana Lynn had the expertise to know that this would make for beautiful pictures and she was right! Claire, who works with Dana Lynn, was wonderful in answering questions that we had and helping us organize what pictures we wanted on our wedding day so it was not a last minute scramble. We also had a videographer for part of our day who created a wedding trailer for us that is absolutely amazing. He composed a beautiful video that captured the spirit of our day perfectly. I am not a person who likes to be on camera, and he did an amazing job of capturing amazing footage without being overbearing. My husband and I are also so pleased with our photography package because Dana Lynn provided this high quality work at a competitive, fair price. Dana Lynn and her team absolutely deserve 5/5 stars, I would highly recommend!

"I originally researched Dana Lynn Photography once I saw photos from a friend's wedding and fell in love. I decided to book her team for both photography and videography and couldn't be happier! Tasha was the lead photographer for the day and she was fantastic!! Not only was she fun and creative but she made it a truly special day for my husband and I. She listened to our overall vision and created personal touches that made our day even more special. I would recommend Dana Lynn's team to anyone looking for a positive and talented team. I have watched our video over and over again and am so glad I decided to book both photos and video to capture our day.

"Dana and Maria were amazing. They were so calm and very flexible. We just received our pictures and I could not be happier. She captured so many beautiful moments. I'm so glad I found her and her team on wedding wire!"

"Our wedding was in November and my husband and I couldn't be happier!! Tasha did and amazing job throughout our wedding, capturing every moment and getting every single detail. Tasha had amazing ideas that we couldn't have thought of and made our pictures come out beautifully. Our photo booth couldn't have worked any better as well everyone enjoyed themselves taking funny pictures. Tasha thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You truly are amazing! Thank you for capturing or special day!! :)"

"It was an absolute pleasure working with Dana and her team for my engagement photos, wedding photos, photo booth and videography. It was so awesome to be able to get all three services under one vendor and not have to worry about other vendors in your already chaotic wedding planning.

Dana was very calm and patient with me. All of my numerous (nervous bride) emails were always replied to on a timely manner and always with the most positive feedback.

On the wedding day Dana and her team arrived on time and was with me the entire day, taking pictures and capturing video before the ceremony, during, and after, and until the end of the reception. She captured all the family and friend shots we needed as well as details such as the centerpieces, and we were left with plenty of time for creative, artistic, and romantic shots as well. We have the traditional "wedding portrait" photos, and many creative photographs that are beautiful simply as pieces of art, above and beyond a "wedding photo." I loved that the photos do not look staged, fake, or cliché. She created lovely images that capture the beauty of our location and the romance of the wedding day..."

"Dana helped me from beginning to end; from engagement session to private bridal session; photobooth; videography and photography. I cannot say enough good things about this company. I work in the luxury service industry and know the true definition of genuine care. That is what she brought each and every time. She is professional but fun and has such a talent for the art of photography. Her skills are above and beyond what anyone would want on their special day. She has such a unique eye for what will look spectacular. I am sooooo happy that we were able to work with her and she was able to be a part of our special day. Thank you Dana and team!"

"Looking back on my wedding day, I cannot stress enough how professional, fun and creative Dana Lynn and her team were. They were a fantastic group to work with!!! They arrived on time and stayed later than they were supposed to just because they are that amazing and really care about the couple they are working with. I highly HIGHLY getting the engagement photos, and then booking your wedding photography package with the same person. My husband and I did our engagement shoot with Dana Lynn and we absolutely LOVED taking photos with her. Not gonna lie, we were both nervous as we don't get professional pictures of ourselves taken often but she was so calm, comforting and really made us feel really natural in front of the camera. Fast forward 9 months later to our wedding day, it was so nice to see Dana Lynn again. She is so sweet and wonderful to work with. I cannot recommend her enough! If you are looking for an affordable photographer who is passionate about their work and loves what they do, look no further! She is truly a gem. We booked her videography package which was well priced and so worth it! Your wedding day flies by so quickly, so you really want to capture those special moments with photos and videos as best you can. Her team did a phenomenal job editing and making our highlight reel, and capturing the magic of our wedding in a 6 minute clip. If you haven't already booked her photo booth package, I would definitely recommend that as well!! Our guests loved the photo booth. :D The props and signs were fun to play around and pose with, and the photo strips were a great little memento from our wedding. "

"I was recently married at the Palms Hotel and Spa in Miami Beach. I hired Dana Lynn Photography and even though the lead photographer wasn't available, the photographer Melanie and her assistant Bianca were incredible. The service they provided was excellent and beyond. There were a few glitches throughout the day but these did not even phase Melanie or Bianca. Not only were they patient with the wedding day glitches, but they took it to another level by offering every helping hand they could provide. I couldn't have been happier with their professionalism. We recently received the proofs from our big day and we are thrilled and impressed by how amazing the pictures came out!!! Hands down, great service. They will not disappoint!!!"

"I cannot say enough about Dana Lynn and her entire team! The first time we met with Dana Lynn at her office, we immediately knew we wanted to have her photograph our wedding. She was so kind and nice and easy to talk to. She made us feel so comfortable. We ended up booking their photo booth (AMAZING!!) and Videography as well. We are so incredibly happy with the entire process and the results. The photos came out beautiful and we loved all of them! We had a hard time choosing favorites. The video trailer was perfect and everyone who has seen it is in love with it also. The video has our song over it and that made it even more perfect! It's something that we will always treasure and can't wait to show our children. Last but not least, the photo booth! It was a success, 100%! People took hundreds of photos and went in more than once. The best part is that we now have a copy of every picture that all our guests took in the photo booth and they were PRICELESS. We had a blast looking at them all the day after our wedding. I could go on forever, but all I can really say is THANK YOU to this amazing team who were awesome to work with and made our photo dreams come true!"

"I used Dana Lynn for my wedding in Key Largo. They provided our photo booth as well as our videography. We had a different photographer, but they worked very well around her. The guys were very nice and made sure to just be around but not in the way. The photobooth was a hit for our guests and the videography was amazing. We just received our video and I cant stop replaying it. By far the best way to spend your money, if you are on the fence about it, I highly recommend it. They did an AMAZING job on the video!!!"
